Frequently Asked Questions
Does August Essentials Bright Green Green Tea have caffeine?
Yes. This kukicha green tea contains caffeine, though typically less than standard green tea varieties. It provides a gentle lift without the jitters, making it suitable for afternoon enjoyment.
How do I brew August Essentials Bright Green Green Tea?
Steep one tea bag in hot water (160–180°F) for 2–3 minutes. For a stronger cup, extend the steep time or use a second bag. This blend can be re-steeped for a second infusion.
What makes kukicha different from other green teas?
Kukicha uses stems and twigs rather than leaves, resulting in a naturally milder, sweeter profile with less caffeine. It's smoother and less astringent than traditional green teas.
